Hi,

I want to list all the component in which a particular string is used.
I want to do using endevor.
Is there any way to do this.

Suppose 1 date field is there: start-date
But this filed is used in more than one program actuall I dont know
how many programs are using this field.

Thats why I want to list all the component.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

usually in any controlled development environment the components
are at a higher level,

if the field is in a copy/include then it should be possible to xref
the copy/include to the programs

As usual hit submit too fast...

if I remember correctly, even when using endevor(TM),
the sources are stored as members of PDS/PDSE

running the ISPF searchfor utility will find the occurrence of any string in
the pds/pdse members

Hi enrico-sorichetti,

Thanks for your quick mail..
The problem i have is quite simple as i am not familiar with endevor so am not able to do a string search.
Since all the date field I am searching is not in my personal dataset and ISPF/PDF option 3.14 search didnt help me finding the string ... let me know as to how I could search the same using String search using endevor....

Thanks In Advance

Hi,

In endevor Build a SCL with the Option 11 List Element, where give the Envirnoment, system and Subsystem and a Program Name

TEXT STRING:
===> 'Your Search String'

Submitt the Scl you will get the Strings in the Program, if you want the strings in whole Subsystem, after the building the SCL edit the SCL and Place * inplace of Subsystem.

Or Simply Use the following SCL

LIST ELEMENT '*'
FROM ENVIRONMENT 'Enviroment' SYSTEM 'System' SUBSYSTEM '*'
TYPE 'JCLJB' STAGE P
OPTIONS SHOWING TEXT NOSEARCH
WHERE TEXT EQ
'String'
BUILD ACTION &&ACTION
.

Hope this Helps

Cheers
Ashwin
